Billingham Hadley Digital

The Billingham Hadley Digital is capable of holding an SLR and standard zoom in its nicely cushioned interior, with a generous front pocket for stashing spare memory cards (or film) and batteries.

Like with other Billingham bags the construction can’t be faulted, with a tough outer skin, sturdy leather quick-release strap and leather trim set to give years of good service (backed by a unique time-unlimited warranty).

However, if you want to take a spare lens with you then you’re going to be out of luck because this is strictly for one body and one ‘standard sized’ lens, which limits its growing room somewhat.

It isn’t particularly cheap either.

Verdict:Billingham is world renowned for the quality of its photo bags, but at this price, you may want to look elsewhere for something more roomy
